Mike, the angle strips on mine (new ones from Mar-K) extend nearly to the back of the rear cross sill. As far as the front, I believe the originals stopped short of the bed front panel flange, as it goes on the inside to allow assembly with the angle strips welded to the bedsides.
Here's some pics of the original bed and the rebuilt one.
